Description & details

Welcome to a home that gives you the space you need today - with room to make it your own tomorrow and a south Barrie location that keeps everything within easy reach - this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath semi-detached home has a lot to offer. The main floor is designed for comfortable everyday living, with hardwood flooring and a combined living and dining area centered around a cozy gas fireplace. Curl up by the fire for a movie on a crisp fall evening, or step through the walkout to the brand-new stone patio and enjoy a glass of wine outdoors. It's an easy extension of the living space and a great setup for entertaining, summer BBQs or simply unwinding at the end of the day. A full garage with convenient inside entry is another welcome feature - particularly when fall turns into winter snow! Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with an upgraded ensuite. The spacious primary suite is a standout, featuring an upgraded ensuite and built-in closet that create a comfortable retreat at the end of the day. The unfinished basement offers plenty of storage now and a blank canvas for the future. Create a rec room, home gym, office or additional living space and finish it to suit your own needs and style. And then there's the location. Set in Barrie's sought-after south end, you're close to parks, recreation, shopping, restaurants and everyday amenities, with quick access to Highway 400 for commuters and weekend adventures alike. Whether you're stepping into homeownership, looking for more room to grow, or ready to simplify without giving up the space you enjoy, this is a home that gives you comfort today, flexibility for tomorrow, and a location that makes everyday life just a little easier.

The data only goes so far — condition, light and layout are worth seeing in person, with a home inspection, before you commit.
